Chương 646: Friend Or Foe

"Pierce. I don't know why you are here. But get out now or I swear I will kill you."

Pierce took a step back, raising his hands in a gesture of surrender. "Autumn, I swear, I'm not here to harm you. Please, just hear me out."

Autumn's grip on the knife tightened, her eyes darting to the door and then back to Pierce. "Why should I believe you? Why else would you be here?"

"I know I've given you plenty of reasons not to trust me, but this isn't about me. It's about you. About your safety. Bianca is dead, you know that."

"I know. But that has nothing to do with me."

"It has everything to do with you. You are going to be that person's next target. There's something you need to know. Something that could change everything."

Pierce took a cautious step closer, but Autumn quickly raised the knife higher, her hand trembling. "Stay where you are, Pierce. If you have anything to say then say it later."
